  • Trump is also making his second administration's first forays on the diplomatic front with calls to Russia's Vladimir Putin and Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelenskyy on ending the 3-year-old war that began in February 2022 when Russia invaded Ukraine.

The article from ABC News discusses former President Donald Trump's plans for a potential second term, focusing on his economic policies, particularly tariffs and trade. Trump has indicated he would impose a 10% tariff on all imports to the U.S., aiming to reduce the trade deficit and protect American industries. This policy could reignite trade tensions, especially with China, where Trump has suggested he might increase tariffs even further. Critics argue that such measures could lead to higher costs for consumers, provoke retaliatory tariffs from other countries, and potentially spark a broader trade war. Additionally, Trump's approach to trade has been described as aggressive, with intentions to use tariffs as leverage in negotiations, which could disrupt global trade dynamics and affect international relations.
